Best Manic Depression Poems

In a subtle way 
 She sighed 
 Even how she waited
 Why won’t the sky fall tonight?
 Why are these memories mine?
 I could take her in my arms 
tonight
 And I could take this PAIN
 And what if it never rains…
Can I kiss...

Lovely Jen a poetic romantic
A mask she hated with the pandemic
Rhinestone, pearls, a smiley face
She decorated the lace
Her boyfriend though she was kind of manic.

Manic-Depression

An illness that consumes me
Speaking endless lies to me
Misconstruing the world for me
Refusing to set me free
Binding me to self destructive tendencies 
Cheating me of what life could be
Supressing the love within me
Strengthening the anger buried inside of me
Distorting the truth right before me
Making me...

Tonight is ending. As my breath slows. My final demise. The final low blow.
 Learn from the broken. See all that's real. Tonight is your heart ache. Tomorrow to feel.
 My time to prove what hate does. My time to show the world how to...

Two sides
Double life
In her head, how can she decide.
The happiness of the day,
The mournfulness of the night.
With the sun she rises like lilies in spring time,
Until the sunset, death steals away her joy,
Bringing nothing but the pain she endured throughout 
Her short life. It devours...

In my bubble
I feel safe and warm
No one to hurt me
Or bring me harm

A knock on the door
And I am filled with fear
I look through the peephole
To see who is here

I hide inside
I dare not open the door
Each knock grips my heart
I fall gently to...

Mum and Dad I had strange
feelings of being bad, feelings
that brought me down crashing
to the ground. 

I had self doubt
gave into fear, I let dread run
away with my head. At that time
my mind was broken my thoughts
went haywire. Something else had
my control and was provoking...

For You - The Lady I loved

What an angel you are 
Cute, beautiful and a star

I listen and I hear you, but you’re no longer here
You are a superstar, that used to sing in my ear

I wish I could have been there with you in...

Some days I love you,
I gave you my heart. 
Other days you break it,
and tear it apart. 
my life was almost perfect
until you came around. 
Your memory still haunts me, 
and your voice is always found. 
All the "no's" and "what-if's" ,
come rearing ugly heads.
you...

“Fear whispers worry into your ear, anxiety into your hopes and doubt into your faith… Love whispers hope and peace” – by poet

With a brain washed pale
By voices thundering
Silent screams echoing through me
Clearing away the debris
Of disappointment and disillusionment
My mind darkened on a clear night
No...

Hot mess,
Bipolar express.
Welcome to my hypomanic hell,
Depression so intense 
It feels like a spell.

Mania,
The broken wheel on your shopping cart
That makes you really good at art.
Depression,
The isolation station
That it kills your imagination....

There are days I don’t want to feel,
There are days I want to destroy all I’ve healed.
There are days that I sail,
Through the skies without fail
On a manic high,
I feel amazing without having to try.
There are days that I’m so angry,
Like a big cry baby
And...

The gentle giant
Towered above his friends
Six foot four, mammoth
His size lost on the truth
Of his kindness
He was mild and tender
Like the elephant 
His spirit whispered
Instead of screaming
He was mellow
Like serenity, soothing

Michael, named for an angel
He was wise and strong
Laughing instead of crying
When the truth was
He...
